Il faudrait faire comme eux parfois, actuer sans une raison, l'acte gratuit :))
Belle photo et composition, j'aime cette fille qui va s'échaper de l'image
Bon dimanche!

Frissons from No City, France
c'est la mailleur des raisons, quand c'est gratuitement et selon le coeur. Une jolie photo d'enfance, spontannée et les couleurs tranchent bien, complémentaires.

@MrsAmber: Dear Kate, I find myself doing absolutely nothing and for no reason at all, lol thanks always!
Eric Cousineau from Sherwood Park, Canada
The question is whether she is running towards something or away from something...... Inquiring minds need to know...... ;-)

@Eric Cousineau: LOl well i don't do follow ups, I'd rather imagine a wonderful life for children...;)
Barbara from Florida, United States
Playful and colorful. A reminder to be a child again when you didn't need a reason to run. Life was all about fun.
Great shot, Lorraine.

Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
I can still remember being a kid and running everywhere not understanding why adults would walk when they could run.
Beautiful shot, Lorraine.

KathyCalculates from Indianapolis, United States
Do you remember having that kind of energy? You run or skip because you have so much energy that you just have to use some of it up or you would explode? I miss that! You captured all the colors and textures and even the movement as the little princess is caught mid-stride!

@KathyCalculates: Well put Kathy and do I ever remember....love your comment x
tyan from Singapore, Singapore
There is just so much energy in a child,whatever happened as we grow up? My college friend was just telling me she missed my 'crazy laugh' back in the old days,i told her i lost that somewhere in uni days..too much cares and worries..love the tiara on the little princess!
ps:I will try to sneak a photo of my examiner,just for you,hehe! Its almost 1am in the morning and i am hyper,cant get to sleep.My heart has already started racing!Argh!

Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States
Perfect title. And what a great idea, to run for no reason the way children do. She's a cute one, btw.

@Viewfinder: God loves us all but He made little girls especially endearing, have a good time on your trip ;)
Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia
Composition and contrasts make this a memorable image. Appeals to me especially, as it's the kind of subject I seek out, myself.

@Andrew Gould: Thanks for the lovely comment Andrew :)
JoeB from Brampton, Canada
In childhood we run for no reason, in adulthood we run for a reason. :D
Seeing over your last few postings you are collecting some girls in natural situations.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to run this freely as adults. Very fun picture.
